true that stan!

"oops...." is full of it, and eventhough it sucks to be at the bottom of the greek food chain they shouldn't be having little man syndrom over the new row.

as for rivalries...in my opinion all the sororities at sdsu are rivals with each other. the girls can be catty at times.
my house is cool with everyone...but there is one house we don't care for because they are known for getting whatever they want like a spoiled little child at christmas. they use their money and push "coke" so they appear flashy and high class...bah!

as for me, i do have a personal rivalry...if you know me you know what house i'm talking about...i can be quoted many times for saying "i hate xyz," or "f*** xyz," or "beep beep beep xyz" when i'm drunk and they piss me off.

Yea there is always competition between fraternities and then between sororities. On my campus, there is only one I particualr can't stand because all the girls are so snobby spoiled lil daddy buys me everything brats. And basically unless your white, rich, and drop dead gorgeous, or legacy, you basically run very little chance of getting in. My big hates another one which I really don't know that well enough to not like them but I support her so they suck too! LOL besides that I either barely know some of the others or I like most of them. One I really like and I will them a shout out is Gamma Phi Beta. They live next door to us and most of them are pretty cool. Some of my friends from class last semester are sisters there and they rock!

come on now, tell us how you really feel about them.

Re: Rivals
 

So, I guess what you are trying to say is: "Don't mess with the MZ TKE's, We're badass!" flex, flex

I guess that means Sigma Chi has 3 times as many studs as Pike.

See, my house tries to be more Zen than this. We just completely ignore all the other Greeks whenever possible. It makes life so much more pleasant- they stay in their yards, we stay in ours, and everyone pretends we don't hate each other. Very European.

There is always friendly competition. It hightens around greek week time tho. Fall semester is usually pretty mellow and our girls let the national sororities ham it out during formal recruitment, which we aren't part of anyway. So in a sense, it's us vs. them but we still get good girls so it's not like everyone is fighting over PMs.
Spring semester gets pretty rough. Sigma Pi's Sorority Superbowl and Greek Week are the two main events. In superbowl, the big rivalry is Sigma Kappa and Alpha Phi. Sigma K used to win it every year but A Phi came outta somewhere this year. So did we and we managed to take 3rd. So it was like Chi Delts/Sigma K vs Alpha Phi. Then during Greek Week there is ALWAYS bitter competition. Since we did really well this year, a lot of GLOs on campus were rooting for us. So it was almost like it was everyone vs A Phi, who has won Greek Week 11 outta the 13 times we have held it. Our girls were pretty bitter about 2nd place, but it's all good, we'll get them next year.
But there is one girl in that sorority that drives everyone nuts. She has the poorest attitude when it comes to losing and if she loses an event or her sorority loses an event, she gets PISSED . It's so funny cuz she only frustrates herself and does worse when she does lose.
Fraternities: Sigma Chi and TKE is the one I think of off the bat. Sometimes there will be tiffs between Sig Ep and Sigma Pi because of IM sports... but I don't really pay attention.

There wasnt much of a rivalry at my campus either when I was there between the sororities. the fraternities had rivalries but that was usually all in good fun...kinda like the greek week thing!

Hmmm, let me see...as far as rivalries go, I don't see much on the sorority side (generally its "friendly competition). I've learned the hard way to not judge an organization based on one member.

As for the fraternities, I'd have to say that the top frat. used to be SAE...now I'm not so sure. (they got into some trouble and are now on probation). There have been a few instances of fighting...ABC fraternity didn't let XYZ into a party they were throwing, so XYZ stole ABCs flag and burned it. Then ABC jumped their fence and a fistfight began! Boys are so silly! (J/K...I'd have done the same thing if I was male!) Oh and two frats did Homecoming with a sorority last year and one of them took the other's letters off of the float and urinated on them (that I know of b/c the guy who did it took a pic!) Needless to say, they don't get along anymore!;)

Blaire

It seemed like Alpha Gam was always in competition with Alpha Phi for the *best* girls during recruitment. But once recruitment was over, everything went back to normal. Its been about 5 years since I graduated (:eek: ), but I still have plenty of friends in the other sororities that I keep in touch with. (Yay for being a Panhellenic junkie--I served in just about any PH office you could! Loved it!)

Our only rival is Tau Beta Sigma, because they're the only music GLO on my campus. We tend to compete for members, but things have gotten a lot better between us, and this year we are even planning socials with them.

Delta Chi and SAE are rivals and pretty much none of the fraternities like Sigma Chi.
As far as sororities we're only friends with AOPI-- bc they aren't like the other 3 houses-- they don't just choose the pretty, skinny, rich, super smart girls that are rude to anyone who isn't.

I don't think anyone really has rivals, but some have pairs... Like we compete a lot with the Kappas for the same girls, same mixers, etc... but that doesn't mean that we hate them or anything! Also, KD and ZTA tend to pair up a lot, and Chi O and Alpha Chi... I'm not sure about DZ... I think they're pretty much lumped with us and Kappa, too.

As far as fraternities... The way the fraternity halls are set up, you're kind of paired off with another fraternity (one fraternity gets second floor, one gets first) and it's been said that the pairs of fraternities never get along. I know the Pi Kapps here hate the Sig Eps (who are underneath them on the hall). It was real funny to get both perspectives at one point because I have a lot of Sig Ep friends, and my roommate's boyfriend is Pi Kapp... so, the Sig Ep would be talking to me at supper saying stuff like, "Wow, we had this GREAT party last night, and some guy got so drunk he set off the fire alarm because he thought it would be funny" then you'd hear the Pi Kapp say, "Those d*** Sig Eps set off the f***ing fire alarm last night! We were ready to beat their a**!!" I don't know for sure about the other fraternity pairs, because most of them are one milid paired with one wild (A Phi A and Chi Psi, Sigma Nu and Lambda Chi... etc...) but, and I say this because I have lots of friends in both these fraternities, Sig Ep and Pi Kapp have some VERY hard-headed guys, and never get along.
